Chopped wire on harness? [img]
« on: 22 November 2009, 14:30 »
Was nosing around the scuttle and saw there was a wire (highlighted) that isnt connected to anything and looks snipped.

Is this ok?

Also does anyone know what the wires on this plug are for or what signals they carry?

The car is a digifant / pb

I would say they are for the ignition module thats sat on top of your ECU.
Does your motor work ok?

Hi
1. What is the color of the wire ?
2. If you follow this wire to the connector, what number hole is it going into ?

1. Is red/white.
2. If your standing where i took the photo, it comes from the furthest of the five holes, on the left side of the plug.

Hi
I think it is to do with the Lambda sensor.
